Bristol City Council - Not Getting It - Episode 2

It's Ginkgo week here at BristolStreetTrees, and we're documenting Bristol City Council's inappropriate use of replacement tree species in our city's streets. Will they ever learn?

Here's the other end of Whiteladies Road, which we covered on Sunday. It's called Park Row.

Yep, that's right. Instead of going for like-for-like replacement planting, or taking the opportunity to use a wide pavement to put in a few large canopy trees, Bristol City Council's Parks Department has chosen to book-end the planting near the Downs by planting with more inappropriate Ginkgos near the top of Park Street.

Fantastic.
